SINGAPORE - A Malaysian national who felt obliged to take up his cousin’s offer to cheat a company, helped to forge invoices on 17 separate occasions.

Goh Chen Ning, 34, had come to Singapore more than 10 years ago to work as a carpenter.

Defence lawyer Asoka Markandu, said Goh’s cousin Teoh Chwin Tzen – referred to as Jason in court, had asked Goh to help out in a carpentry shop on the weekends.
